More government files were released about President John F. Kennedy’s assassination.
But there are still mysteries surrounding what happened that day.
And Anna Paulina Luna wants an answer to one scary question about the Kennedy assassination.
House task force to investigate if CIA lied to Congress about Kennedy
President Donald Trump fulfilled a promise when the National Archives and Records Administration released more than 63,000 documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
The records revealed opened a window into the world of Cold War covert operations by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) is conducting a probe of the Kennedy assassination as the head of the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets.
The task force will hold its first hearing on the documents released about the Kennedy assassination and could investigate if the CIA lied to Congress about it.
“The task force and the transparency this is providing is long overdue,” Luna stated. “The reason that you have such an array of theories is because the government was not transparent.”
Mary Ferrell Foundation Vice President Jefferson Morley will be an expert witness at the task force’s hearing.
Morley conducted his own investigation into the Kennedy assassination and advocated for the government to declassify more secrets.
The government stonewalled the release of the JFK documents
Morley and other independent Kennedy researchers were critical of the government’s delay in releasing the rest of the files.
Trump told reporters that he had the National Archives release documents with the Social Security numbers of deceased individuals to be as transparent as possible.
“I was given the task of releasing that because many Presidents have gone through it and they haven’t released. I said ‘release,’” Trump stated. “We even released social security numbers. I didn’t want anything deleted.”
Luna revealed that the National Archives have been dragging their feet on releasing information on the Kennedy assassination, dating back to the Biden administration.
“All too often in Washington, especially when it involves the intelligence agencies, you have stonewalling that takes place,” Luna explained. “So you kind of need a pitbull if you will, or multiple pitbulls that can actually go after individuals or agencies to ensure these documents are released.”
The National Archives released the documents in three separate batches.
She was hopeful that everything would be finally released because of “massive changes” at the CIA, National Archives, and FBI.
New CIA Director John Ratcliffe supports releasing everything the government knows about the assassination.
Luna and Morley are searching for a purported CIA Inspector General from the 1970’s that a whistleblower to Congress claimed existed.
The whistleblower claimed the document would reveal the CIA lied to the House Select Committee on Assassinations to protect the agency’s covert operations.
From 1977 to 1979, the House Select Committee on Assassinations investigated the assassinations of Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr.
“I know you guys are looking for it, our team is looking for it and I also have the Archives looking for it,” Luna said. “We are working night and day to try to locate this document.”
